I don’t know if he can do that. He’s been in the league 8-9 years and people have said that the entire time.

Bro its almost like 1999 AOL dial up version :lol:


It's actually running faster for me right now than it was last night and this morning. I could barely make a post at all and now it's just kinda sluggish.


For me it’s reloading that I can barely see new comments, note device is brand new and there is game running on HBO Max on the same network in 4K on the same router so it’s not my network , idk maybe it’s location , I’m based in NY

I've seen that called as an offensive foul so many times.

Wolves get Kat's best friend and a younger PG that can Start with Edwards or Be the 6th man/backup PG for Minnesota.

DLo, Edwards, McDaniels, KAT, Reid
Conley, Alexander,Slomo,Rui, Hayes off the bench


I can see Giddey being traded there, and OKC get a big in return.

What's even crazier that Dallas is up 2-0 in this series is that the officiating has been inarguably in Minnesota's favor every game.

Sheesh, soft foul for Hardy there. Maybe another angle shows something?

Not an offensive foul but hardy traveled before that so I think it balances out
